I can't recall Felix, either an aunt or uncle or his brother by a different mother. Sometimes his southern accent makes it hard to understand what he writes.

You'd think that would be more of a oral communication problem though, wouldn't you?

Thanks for the welcome Chicka. Best of luck with the heart doc!

And thanks for the laughs Bama..

No Felix, when I read Bama's posts, I always hear it with a southern accent. When I read yours I hear the "hoogin floogin," Rose on Golden Girls always talked about. Women

always notice voice inflections.

So DD, if you had to pick a famous person that we would know their voice, who would you say you sound like?

Chicka saying prayers for you! Hopefully the doctor can figure out what is going on and get you fixed up. Do you have to take it easy until you know what's going on?
You all are on a roll today. Many of the posts are giving me the giggles! Thank you for brightening up my day!

Thanks so much ya'll for the thoughts and prayers and for the laughs Dude. I needed that.
I have had broke ribs and laughed it does hurt like crazy! lol

Scg I have to take Ranexa extended-release tablets 1000mg twice a day till my procedure. The first one this morning.
I am a little concerned they may be to strong for me. It seems everything is to strong. I usually only take a half of everything.
But they said to try it and to call if I have any problems with it.

dsqard the Dr. said to keep doing everything I have been doing right along. So I am. I am weak and tired most of the time but I take a nap when I need to. That's nice.

I would take the full dose. If they said too, it is an indication that you need that dosage for it to be therapeutic...I have to tell my DW that sometimes--some medicines do not do anything unless you get the correct dosage.

Sandi, please don't be mad at me, but you were wanting to post pictures of Maddy in her costume. These are the ones you have on fb.

Nice Harry Potter costumes!

Diva, my accent is a bit if a mess. It's basically your generic American accent, with a spot of British pronunciation and expressions thrown in, and a bit of overly clearly pronounced letters thrown in here and there. Also, I tend to mimic the accent of the person I'm speaking with to a varying degree. With Brits and Yanks it's not so bad, but I really had to hold my tongue when I worked with a dominantly Indian team, I had a tendency to drift into this Simpson's Apu routine, which can end up sounding horribly racist. If I were to spend a prolonged period of time in an English speaking country, it would take me a couple of weeks to sound pretty alike to the general population, but my use of all kinds of expressions from different parts of the English speaking world would give me away as an imposter.
